Dimming Example Client on nRF52840 DK not detected by nRF Mesh Provisioning App.

[Armin]

An nRF5 SDK for Mesh v2.2.0 dimming example client running on a nRF52840 Preview DK is not detected for provisioning by a nRF Mesh smartphone provisioner.

Running the example in debuger delivers the following output on startup:

<t:          0>, main.c,  353, ----- BLE Mesh Light Switch Client Demo -----

So have you done that, then?

[Armin]

No. Please can you assist me how to do that?

However, I doubt if this is the reason for the reported issue because it is just a warning.

I'm wondering if you ever have tested the dimming example client on a nRF52840 Preview DK with nRF Mesh smartphone provisioner. I use all parts of the firmware and app exactly as you provide them without any change and they don't run. That lets me doubt if you ever have tested it.

What IDE are you using?

I'm not so sure about that - whenever I've seen it, it's been fatal.

Anyhow, it's not the kind of warning to ignore!

I haven't.

You're right of course. Sorry for that - my mistake.

I'm using:

SEGGER Embedded Studio for ARM
Release 3.40  Build 2018052200.36079

Thank you for your tip, but it does not solve the issue unfortunately.

Do you mean it doesn't get rid of the message?

Or getting rid of the message doesn't fix the issue of not being detected?
